Quote from: ThatGuy on December 02, 2018, 09:07:52 PMI don't think you can do 4 fixators at once. You've said you wish to gain 19cm which is pretty extreme. There's only 1 person on this entire forum who has gone to about 10 cm and this guy is an extreme example, but he managed 11cm. His leg ratio looks pretty bad because he did all of this on a single segment. So yes its possible, but is it safe? No, I'd say for the vast majority of people this is a death wish.

https://bit.ly/2SrJCrO This is apoth, I thought he went for 191, 17cm is still extreme.
I looked up greekster first and got apotho, but I couldn't find a decent before and after of greek only the mock ups.
Apparently his arms and torso were perfect for the procedure because I'd argue apoth has the best ratios I've seen
yet and this is assuming he isn't shopping his photos.


btw, take apos pictures with a huge grain of salt. he is known to "manipulate it". Like wearing bigger pants and t-shirt to cover the area that seperates torso and the hip.
He also takes pictures from certain angle where which enlarges torso.
There was a picture of him playing american rugby where he has extremely oversized shorts. He pretends its some kind of fashion move but we all know why.

If you do apos amount of lengthening forget ever wearing slim fit or skinny fit pants. Even regular fit pants.
You will be condemned to wear rapper-like baggy clothes for rest of your life.

Whats the point of LLing if you're going to look   after anyway?

edit:
there was a documentary by cbs 20/20, a longer version of that documentary which I cant find on youtube, where Apo in one short scene got caught off-guard. You can see his proportions without any manipulation, and believe me it was shocking.

How many cms is "safe"
elbow is where his torso ends.. it just looks weird even with those XL shorts

i dont know if wear skinny/slim but it makes your leg look longer.
Baggy pants makes your legs look shorter.
10+10cm LL = no more slim/skinny

I dont think i have any jeans in my wardrobe thats not slim/skinny.

I found only now post saying about "safe frames" that can be performed at once, and 10 cm is achieveable during one op on upper or lower legs, not recommended, but still.

This would also happen with 5cm of femur?

I thought so, I've read about apotho a bit so I'm not surprised and I've seen that gif too. Still the only thing I'm hearing is he should've done AL to even things out a bit. Then again his torso looks really small compared to lower half, rip. I'm only aiming for 6'0 or 183-184 to keep my wingspan equal with my height, to save money and avoid AL.

Apo did AL in the end. I am not sure if the gif was before or after AL though.

Anyway no matter what, when you read something on the internet. Apo or other peoples diary dont swallow it raw. Always be a little bit skeptic. Diaries and pictures can deceive you. LL is a life changing choice. Making the wrong one can cause you years of pain, maybe even permanent.

Dont go to 3rd world countries to save money. Rather wait, save up enough and do with a proper surgeon.
